On behalf of our group company, Syntio, we are looking for a Data Engineer to join our team in Croatia.

Syntio is a premium data engineering consultancy recognised for delivering cutting-edge knowledge and cloud-based solutions to tackle complex data challenges on a global scale. We are proud to have been acknowledged by the Financial Times as the fastest-growing data engineering company in Europe.

Innovation is at the core of what we do. Our dedicated R&D department ensures we stay ahead in the ever-evolving data space, continually pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.

This role is based in Croatia, with our offices located in Zagreb. We follow a hybrid working model, including occasional travel to the office.

While our Croatian office operates primarily in Croatian, we collaborate with multinational clients. Datatonic is an English-speaking company, so we are looking for candidates fluent in English, both written and spoken, as it is our main language of communication.

As a Machine Learning Engineer, you'll know how to engineer beautiful code in Python and take pride in what you produce. You'll be an advocate of high-quality engineering and best-practice in production software as well as rapid prototypes.

Whilst the position is a hands-on technical role, we'd be particularly interested to find candidates with a desire to lead projects and take an active role in leading client discussions. Your responsibilities will involve building trusted relationships with prospects, finding creative ways to use machine learning to solve problems, scoping projects, and overseeing the delivery of these engagements.

To be successful, you will need strong ML & Data Science fundamentals and will know the right tools and approach for each ML use case. You'll be comfortable with model optimisation and deployment tools and practices. Furthermore, you'll also need excellent communication and consulting skills, with the desire to meet real business needs and deliver innovative solutions using AI & Cloud.
